Abstract (en)

[origin: US5871055A] PCT No. PCT/FI95/00258 Sec. 371 Date Sep. 25, 1996 Sec. 102(e) Date Sep. 25, 1996 PCT Filed May 16, 1995 PCT Pub. No. WO95/31254 PCT Pub. Date Nov. 23, 1995The invention relates to an installation for fire fighting, using a number of automatically released sprinklers. The invention also relates to a sprinkler to be used in the installation. With the aim of conserving extinguishing liquid, reducing the size of the drive unit of the installation intended for the procedure and providing an active installation that is released directly by a sprinkler, the installation comprises a number of electric positive and negative wires, which have been arranged to a scanning device comprising breakers (+A-+E, -13, --19) for each positive and negative wire, whereby said wires form an electric net where positive and negative wires are electrically connected via sprinklers respectively comprising individual breakers (K), whereby each sprinkler is arranged to open its breaker (K) upon the release the sprinkler in question and to thus interrupt the connection between the respective positive and negative wire, whereby the scanning device, upon establishing the interrupted connection and the position of the released sprinkler, is arranged to release according to a plan the sprinklers adjacent to said position by closing according to said plan the breakers (+A-+E, -13, --19) of the scanning device.
